Any tips for a beginner regarding golf clubs?

I used to play golf before, played with a bladed Spalding set, which didn’t turn out well, and never really hit the ball well. Now 10 years later, I find myself wanting to learn the game again.

I’m torn between 3 decisions:

Plan A is to buy a cavity back 7 iron and a wood, and learn from those 2 clubs. Once I re-learn, invest in a good set of used irons.

Plan B is to buy a cheap 2nd hand set, but the 2nd-tiered ones like Dunlop, Spalding, Wilson. Not exactly brand name from what my friend told me, but good enough.

Plan C was what a shop suggested, buy a whole set of clones, learn from them, and when I’m ready, buy the real deal.

Which of these would actually help me re-learn the game? Plan A seems to be a good investment just in case I find out that golf isn’t my game. Plan B sounds like a good idea since after a few weeks, I can use these clubs to “practice” a round too. Plan C sounds nice since I’m playing a full set close to brand names.

What do you guys think?
